It might look nicer but still not much use if your Country Ranger takes you to Heworth or you end up in Bishop on a Tyne Valley Ten. GNE have shown repeatedly that they are too incompetent to make branding work, regardless the arguments whether it can actually work. It's just good money after bad now.
That’s presumably why GNE have, since MG left, been reducing the number of brands with quite a few more due to go I understand.
